I'm removing Vanek and Ovechkin. Their tenure in the league has been short, though productive. They may not offer owners much competitiveness. Replacing them will be Sandis Ozolinsh and Sergei Gonchar, two distinct journeymen in the NHL who were productive players, winners, and staples on any PP unit.

Elias can't work due to a lack of goalies. It's almost all Brodeur in net while Elias played. You need another Czech. Petr Nedved?

Chara doesn't quite make it up to the cap (I tried), due in large part because some of the best players he matched up with are blacklisted. This theme still needs some tinkering. If you want an interesting Slovak born (he grew up in Canada though) player to add some variety use Stan Mikita.

I can make Sergei Gonchar work! League Number?

I will look into Elias and the goaltending. I do think Jersey had plenty of goalies go through that team during Elias' tenure. I put a half team together of Elias and it wasn't that bad at all.
